Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If she doubles the area of her lot, it should be 2x^2.
But how do you get that?
The answer is that the sides have now increased to √2x
How did I get that, and why did I choose it?
- The formula for a square's area is s^2
- If you want to double the area, it will be 2 s^2. Now what?
- Take the square root of 2s^2 which is √(2s^2).
- What that means is the side is now √2 s
The two possible answers are w = 3 and w = -1/5
These answers can be obtained through solving to the absolute value symbols.
<span>−2∣5w−7∣+9=−7 ---> subtract 9 from both sides
</span><span>−2∣5w−7∣= -16 ---> divide both sides by -2
</span>∣5w−7∣= 8
Now, because of the absolute value symbols, set the inside equal to 8 and -8 for the two answers.
5w - 7 = 8
5w = 15
w = 3
AND
5w - 7 = -8
5w = -1
w = -1/5
900 - 250 = 650
650 / 250 = 13 / 3 = 2.6 = 260%
